Radsok^® Contacts
For High Power Applications
Amphenol
Aerospace
• Socket cylinder within female contact has several equally
spaced longitudinal beams twisted into a hyperbolic shape.
• As male pin is inserted, axial members in the female half deflect,
imparting high current flow across the connection with minimal
voltage loss.
• The hyperbolic, stamped grid configuration ensures a large,
coaxial, face-to-face surface area engagement.
• Ideal for crimp termination applications requiring repeated
mating cycles and high current with a low milli-volt drop.
RADSOK^® technology is based upon a stamped
and formed flat grid, uniquely twisted into a
hyperbolic geometry to provide robust, high
density contact to the mating pin contact. Most
pin and socket technologies rely upon spring
(beam element) properties of the contact
elements, which tend to weaken over time. Unlike
most other pin and socket solutions, the RADSOK^®
also utilizes the tensile strength properties of
the flat, high conductivity alloy grid. This provides
the high normal forces required for conductivity
while also providing large conductive surface area.
Correspondingly low voltage drop and low
temperature rise are also achieved while
maintaining low insertion forces.
The RADSOK^® (RADial SOcKet) High Amperage, Low
Insertion Force Electrical Terminal provides value to your
purchasing, engineering, quality and manufacturing objectives.

Standard RADSOK^® socket
contacts for Amphe-Power^®
connectors are available in sizes 0, 4, 8 and 12
crimp or solder. Specific sizes can often be
produced more economically than other fastening
solutions. Amphenol can tailor the contact design to
exact customer needs. See page 428 and 429 for
more information about Amphe-Power Connectors.
